4.6 Electrical signal output for DK37/M8E
Wiring must be planned with great care when it comes to connecting other devices such as evaluation units or process control. Internal connections in these devices (e.g. GND with PE, mass loops) may lead to non-permitted voltage potentials which could negatively affect the function of the device itself or that of a device connected to it. In such cases a protected extra-low voltage (PELV) is recommended.

7.1 Functional principle
The flowmeter operates in accordance with the float measuring principle.
The measuring unit consists of a metal cone in which a float can move freely up and down.The medium flows through the flowmeter from bottom to top.
The float adjusts itself so that the buoyancy force A acting on it, the form resistance W and its weight G are in equilibrium: G = A + W
For DK32, DK34 and DK37/M8M 1 the flow-dependent height of the float in the measuring unit is transmitted by means of a magnetic coupling on a scale.
For DK37/M8E, DK32/ESK and DK34/ESK 2 the flow-dependent height of the float in the measuring unit is transmitted to the electronic display by means of a magnetic coupling on sensors S1 and S2.

7.5 Differential pressure regulators
Differential pressure regulators are used (only DK32 and DK37) to guarantee constant flow during fluctuating inlet and outlet pressure. Minimum pressures are required to operate the regulators (refer to regulator characteristics).
1 Inlet pressure regulators, type RE, NREThe regulators keep the flow rate constant in the case of a variable inlet pressure and a constant outlet pressure.
2 Outlet pressure regulator, type RA, NRAThe regulators keep the flow rate constant in the case of a constant inlet pressure and a variable outlet pressure.
There must be a pressure differential between the inlet and the outlet pressure for the outlet pressure regulators to function. The inlet pressure p1 must always be greater than the outlet pressure p2.
Regulator characteristics
INFORMATION!Differential pressure regulators are not equivalent to pressure reducing valves!
Example of inlet pressure regulatorRE-1000
Current flow rate: 1000 l/h air
Outlet pressure p2 constant:
1.013 bara / 14.7 psia
The flow rate in the device remains constant with a fluctuating inlet pressure greater than 0.5 bar / 7.25 psi.
Example for outlet pressure regulatorNRA-800
Current flow rate: 800 l/h air
Inlet pressure p1 constant: 6 bar / 87 psi
The flow rate in the device remains constant with a fluctuating outlet pressure greater than 0...5.5 bar / 0...79.8 psi.
